Floating above the ground in the hot air balloon was one of the most amazing experiences of my life... drifting along at the whim of the wind direction and viewing life from 2,000 feet was incredible... It was an amazing morning and one that I will never forget.

I would definitely recommend this experience to others. It was great fun and the champagne toast and initiation ceremony at the end of the flight really made for a fabulous experience!

Everything was handled in a very professional manner, our pilot was fun, he even landed the balloon on the trailer, which we were blown away by. The experience was better than I had imagined it would be, far better in fact and the scrumptious breakfast was a lovely ending to a most memorable morning. Thanks Red Balloon.

It was amazing! The scenery was fantastic and the photos we took are breathtaking. The crew were very friendly and informative. The hands-on participation also made the experience even more unique. The only hard part was getting up at a crazy hour of the morning!

This was a fantastic experience. We had a lot of fun; setting the balloon up, floating around the Yarra Valley and watching reactions of animals to the balloon overhead - rabbits running from the vines to the cover of bushes, calves running for cover, a horse looking twitchy while its mate was unconcerned. Once landed, a delicious breakfast capped off a brilliant early morning.

Was such a great way to start the day... was a beautiful morning, the champagne breakfast afterwards was just a treat, and the people we met, along with the pilot Kiff was just great. A great day all round, (possibly apart from the major workout putting the balloon back in its bag)...what a fun time it was, great fun!

I would recommend this trip to anyone and everyone! I am scared of heights but love adrenaline rush activities. Brian put me totally at ease, and made the experience well worth the panic! Landing on the trailer at the end was exceptional. Thanks so much for the memories. We got some fantastic photos too.Thank you so much for allowing me to 'tick off something' on my "DO BEFORE I DIE LIST".

As we rose gently through the final misty layers we were stunned to find ourselves at 2.400m in a beautiful white fluffy landscape of clouds fully lit by the just risen sun. In the far distance perched misty mountains - Mt Beauty and the Dandenongs Hills. Everyone gasped and in one breath said "How wonderful" with delight. I'll never forget that moment and the shared experience we all felt!

The whole morning was magical. The pilot and crew made it a fun experience joking with the passengers but at the same time making us feel completely confident in their ability.

The balloon flight is something that everyone needs to experience in their lifetime. It was a great few hours, from the preparation for flight, the flight itself, the sunrise views, the scenery and the people!

Absolutely superb experience. My husband booked the balloon flight as a surprise 40th birthday present and it was fantastic. I loved the entire 'hands on' approach, the views were stunning, the pilot witty and informative. The champagne went down a treat before breakfast! I would love to do it again! Many thanks
